I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Still, most scientists and regulatory agencies agree that even small doses of gamma and x-radiation increase cancer risk, although by a very small amount. In general, the risk of cancer from radiation exposure increases as the dose of radiation increases. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
